TIPS
You can add parsley or any other herb for savory pie crust.
Roll dough bigger than your pie plate.
Never stretch out the dough from the bottom to cover the edge.
If you bake crust without the filling, prick it with fork for air to escape.
Preheat oven to 425 degree F. Place it in the lower rack of oven, and check frequently for empty pie crust. Also break the bubbles, if any while baking. Bake for about 10 minutes.
